Are you keen to become a Neighbours Aotearoa “Champ"?

Krissy Neighbourly Lead from Tikipunga

Since 2009, Neighbours Aotearoa has been encouraging people to connect at a street level. Whether it's a friendly wave, sharing tea or crops, or hosting a neighborhood gathering - these connections are the building blocks of stronger and more vibrant communities.

We want to grow this movement but we can't do this alone! As a small yet dedicated team, we need your support to reach even more neighborhoods in 2024.

Are you keen to become a Neighbours Aotearoa “Champ"? Your role is simple: spread the message about Neighbours Aotearoa in your community, town, city, neighbourhood, or street.

We've got packs filled with flyers and posters ready to send across the motu. You know your community best, so you can decide where they go.
All you need to do is fill out a quick form, and we'll send a physical pack to your doorstep in early January!
Or tag someone who you think would be keen.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
